DESCRIPTION

The Kindra Cowl was inspired by the transition from winter to spring. It begins with traditional Norwegian star colorwork to represent winter and moves into solid stockinette stitch to signify a calm spring. This cowl is knit in the round as a seamless tube that starts with a provisional cast on and is finished with the Kitchener stitch. The colorwork is charted.
